Happy New Year, everyone!! Goodbye 2010, hello 2011, and welcome to the start of the 2012 presidential sweepstakes!!

And we have a lot at stake this election cycle. Namely, our freedom and our very right to exist as a constitutional free Republic!! The Marxist left is now making noises that our constitution is outdated, written in an ancient language that is too hard to understand, and is unnecessary. They want no restrictions on government power whatsoever and believe that there ARE no restrictions on government power whatsoever.

Proof of that is the ramrodding through of the unconstitutional Marxist ObamaCare system and his current scheme of "ruling" the country through his unaccountable czars and unelected regulatory bodies and not having to worry about the congress to pass HIS laws.

This must NOT be allowed to stand!! This would be a total overthrow of our constitutional Republic and everything it stands for!!

Consider the next two years as the battle for continued American freedom vs a complete Marxist takeover of our beloved country!!

Free Republic is needed now more than ever!! I'm hoping that we can continue building on our strengths, that we can focus on fighting to get constitutional conservatives elected, that we can do all we can to thwart Obama's Marxist takeover attempts, and that we can continue building our relationships with the various Tea Party groups and others to rally support for our constitutional conservative causes all across the fruited plain!!

God bless and thank you all very much for your continued support and for making Free Republic the premier God and Country constitutional conservative site on the Internet!!

First of all, I'd like to thank all of you for making Free Republic the number one conservative site on the Internet!!

There is no doubt that FReepers have made a difference in American politics. As an example, we FReepers worked closely with Bob Barr and helped him impeach President Clinton. That one's in the history books. The Clintons and the Democrats will never live it down. It might even have been a factor in thwarting Hillary's run for the presidency, though we're now stuck with someone just as bad. And that's only because we couldn't get a conservative on the top of the ticket. Just goes to show how far gone our political world has tumbled and why FR is needed now more than ever! No more RINOS!!

Another example is FReeper chapters turning out in Florida and DC and all around the country protesting and successfully blocking Al Gore's attempted coup d'etat in 2000. And again when FReepers exposed Dan Rather's fraudulent reporting and then pitched in to help swiftboat John Kerry. These are also in the history books.

But we live in a target rich environment. Through outright fraud and deception the corrupt Democrats have taken over the White House and both houses of Congress. Our Marxist-in-chief and his socialist enablers are now working double time to destroy what's left of our free economy and capitalist society. They will stop at nothing short of the total collapse of America if they are not stopped. Anyone who doesn't believe that is simply not paying attention. They have their sights set on the total downfall of America and world socialist domination and they've never been closer than they are today.

Should Obama's plans for taking over the health care industry, "revolutionizing" the energy sector, ie, bankrupting the oil, gas and coal industries, taking complete control over the financial and banking industries, expanding federal control over the entire corporate sector, bankrupting all heavy industry, mining, timber, agriculture, etc, etc, it'll be Katy bar the door. Our economy will collapse and down the drain goes our beloved US of A.

And not to mention his failures in foreign policy and national security/national defense. Obama is without a doubt one of the worst presidents we've ever had if not the very worst. Don't know which will kill us first, his overreaching Marxist economic policies or his bungling/inept foreign policy and piss poor execution of his duties as Commander-in-chief. Obama can't figure out whether he should attack or surrender as our enemy gets stronger and bolder. And if he allows Iran to get nukes, then it's just a matter of time. The entire Middle East is closer than ever to going up in a mushroom cloud and Obama doesn't have a clue. Borrowing from General Schwarzkopf, "he's neither a strategist, nor is he schooled in the operational art, nor is he a tactician, nor is he a general, nor is he a soldier. Other than that he is a great military man."

And who's going to stop him? We are. Not saying FR will do it alone, but we are one of hundreds if not thousands of similar grassroots organizations that are banding together to block this yahoo. We just happen to be one of the larger and older organizations and one with a history of accomplishments. And together we've protested at thousands of grassroots Tea Parties in every city of the land and we just turned out two million patriots to protest Obama in DC. This was probably one of the largest protests ever in our nation's capital. And we're just getting warmed up. The biggest protests are yet to come and then we turnout in historic numbers in 2010 and 2012 to dump the evil Marxist bastards!!

But just like the rest of the country we are currently struggling financially. We don't sell products or services. We don't sell advertising or memberships. There are no fees or dues to pay to use our services or to join our organization. We rely solely on voluntary donations from our readers and participants to support our organization and events and it has always worked very well in the past. I pray it continues.

We appreciate very much your continuing support and dedication to the cause. There is much work yet to be done. If not us, who? If not now, when?

Thank you all very much.

God bless.

Keep your powder dry.

Rebellion is brewing!!
